lyrics

the grave is flooded
your scent is following me around
i know i’ve made mistakes
that look suits you better yet
please mind your seating
these altar boys they roll their eyes
and your meditation fails one to be disturbed

like the butterflies in your lungs
spit them out or they’ll take out your bones
you call it fashion i feel decay
science has forgotten how to pray
that is fine as long as i don’t pay
your penitence or sure way passage of your faith in life
spilling down and it scares the devil inside
but please i’m tired of hearing you tell me what’s
right and wrong and this and that and
you and me and
ohhh i’m afraid that you’ll never be the same

through countless hours you told me time and time again
these mechanized transcriptions fail to bring us water to our mouths
only starvation brings about a pure escape
so now i visualize the kingdom’s breath through shallow tides

i know that it’s faith
don’t you worry now
i shall be saved again
what i did was the same for the the love i have
you should have seen me
these tiny wounds that left me there and left me screaming
i was lost i was young don’t worry any more
i found it
i found it
HAHAHA DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT

these non-believers they look at me like it’s a crime
i bite my nails i scrape my skin the sound it makes reverberates
oh listen listen listen to my breath escape
don’t think you can do it best strip me of a simple test
this blood is dirty but yet again you like that best
i see their eyes they stare me down i can’t fool death the way you can
a false conclusion tearing flesh inside your eyes
haha now look at me now read my lips for now

undressed and
distressed take my word as truth and you will know the
rest let’s
suggest fair intentions to the life of every
guest you know
best, don’t disarm me yet i know it’s your
request i’m
impressed after all you did you did you still want my
arrest
